Points for flags
Adding a points for players who would’ve made you points if the defence hadn’t Fowled them be cool. Ie pass interference calls on them so the ball gets placed at the spot of the flag would get your player half the yards at least

only players that are on IR should be placed on IR. get rid of the other designations
commissioner tool need a button to click that only allows players that are on IR to be placed on IR. you need to give commissioner the ability to move players that are on IR that are not IR on other teams to their active roster and make that team illegal to force them to fix their line up. this is a horrible loop hole that teams are using to hoard and pick up players especially if you are in a league with limited roster spots. i know on other sites you have the ability to only allow IR to be…

Matchup Changes
Our league has a scheduling discrepancy. I am unable to change 2 matchups for week 9 even though week 9 is labeled as "Not Started Yet". This seems unfair as there is still time before Thursday night kick-off and we are unable to resolve a simple issue. I am the commissioner of this league...
Hey Vincent,
A commissioner can edit the schedule in a head-to-head league up until 11:59 PM PT the night before the first game of the week.
After that deadline, you'll need to contact Yahoo to make this change for you. You can reach out through the sports tab at help.yahoo.com for assistance.

Division Seeding By Points For
In League ID#40102, the head of one division has less points for, which I thought was the determining factor for ranking. They did happen to beat the team that has the same record but more points for. Shouldn't the 3 seed be the division leader?

Not allow a player to move to IR after game has started
Hi Yahoo Fantasy Support,
I’m the commissioner of our Family Football league, and I noticed an issue during last night’s GB vs. WAS game that I feel needs to be addressed.
Jaylen Reed began the game active and on my bench. After he was injured and ruled out for the rest of the game, the system allowed me to move him to IR and then pick up another player off waivers. This creates a loophole that undermines fair play, because I already have settings in place so that a player cannot be dropped once their game has started.
In my…
Thank you for your feedback regarding not allowing a team to move a player to their IR spot after their game has already started. Currently, there is no setting to prevent this. You would have to make an internal rule amongst the league members to not have them do this. We appreciate your feedback regarding this and we will pass it along to our team!

have someone actually monitor email help requests
Have agents or help desk personnel ACTUALLY respond to your email requests. NOT at all happy that I get NO support. We'll be switching back to CBS Sports after this season! And all of this mess with waiver order and other minute details, that do matter I might add, all seem like no big deal to Yahoo and this is only week 1. No wonder Yahoo Fantasy Football is free. You get what you pay for!

Commissioner tools are lacking for team management
I tried to find a way to swap manager and co-manager. There is no way. The only way to do this is to invite the co-manager (Transfer team), and then add back the original manager as co-manager. Ideally a swap of manager / co manager would be great. This is even more painful the manager being transferred FROM is the commissioner. Imagine we have:
1. Team A managed by the commish, who wants to transfer ownership to someone else.
2. Transfer cannot be done directly because COMMISH NEEDS TO MANAGE A TEAM IN THIS LEAGUE.
3. Find some other user… -
MINIMUM FAB BID
I have people in my league that are getting free agents that dont bid any money on players. Why does Yahoo not give the commissioner the option to set a minimum bid? Even $1 should be the lowest they can go. Just doesnt seem right....
Hi Jeremy,
Thanks for your feedback.
The FAB budget is only for players on waivers. Managers do not have to put in an offer to add a free agent player. The minimum offer for waiver players is $0.
We will provide your feedback to our product team.

Pickem League Settings
for pickem leagues, please make a setting where the commissioner can choose to have the point spreads end in half points (ex 7.5), instead of zero (ex 7.0). this would assure there would be no ties for pickem. ties are pointless. thank you.

Commissioner Optimal Players Button for setting other teams lineup when they drop out of the league.
Since I'm a Yahoo Plus subscriber I use the Start Optimal Players button a lot. I'd like to have that available as a commissioner when I am forced to control another team where an owner has dropped out. That way I get an unbiased lineup for each week. Right now I can only set that other team's lineup manually.

Manager-less team
Please let me add a manager-less team ahead of time rather than waiting for the scheduled draft.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to add a manager-less team ahead of the draft. If your league has an odd number of teams and it is a head-to-head league, the manager-less team will be created when the league drafts. We appreciate your feedback regarding this and we will pass it along to our team!

Remove "one-time purchase" from the description of commissioner plus
This is in no way shape or form a one time purchase. This is a purchase needed yearly. If someone purchases this one time for their one league they should be able to expect to never purchase it again for that league. However, it needs to be done every year, which is more of an annual subscription. This is extremely predatory advertising and is not faithful to your fan base.
Hi Max,
Information available for Commissioner Plus notes: "Yahoo Fantasy Commissioner Plus is a one-time purchase available to league commissioners only. These features won't auto-renew and will require you to purchase them again each season for your leagues."

Two suggestions
For private leagues, if we need to add someone new, have option to recruit from a forum or public league post invite. We are facing a 3 manager deficit this season, and are running out of known viable candidates.
For survivor leagues, make more like pick em leagues when renewed. I need to change my password BEFORE sending invites. Its stuck on 2022

Commissioner Full Control
You announced guillotine leagues in August. This is when people start to draft and have already done a ton of legwork to get their leagues going. Terrible timing. Should have been done 3 months ago or next season. After chatting with support and askinf if I can add roster spots after the draft, during the season (like in week 4 for example) I learn that we have to contact support to make that happen. Thats just way too much. Commissioners should haev full control over their leagues. Why we cany have this in 2025 is beyond me. Also, the updates…

Please provide league commissioner ability to change team draft order EASIER!
I have tried following your instructions for changing my league's team draft order for years and haven't been successful. I don't understand why that cannot be done.
Thank you reaching out about changing the draft order in your league. If your league uses a live draft, you can follow the steps here to change the draft order. If your league uses an autopick draft, the steps are different. You'll need to click on the "Draft" tab along the top while in your league. Then, you should see the "Edit Draft Order & Assign Keeper Players" option. You'll need to finalize the team list first if it is greyed out and unable to be clicked on. If you experience any issues doing this, please contact our support team under the sports section at help.yahoo.com.

Make it easy for us league commissioner’s to replace teams who don’t want to return the next season without needing to BAN them so a new one can join. Or at least have an UNBAN option for league commissioner’s. This is complicating things!
Thank you for reaching out regarding removing teams from your league. You can remove a team from your league by following these steps:
- Click the Commissioner tab.
- Click the Manage Other Teams tab.
- Click Remove Teams.
- Click Remove next to the team you want deleted.
- You may need to unlock the team list to remove the team.
- If you select Remove and Ban, the manager won't be able to rejoin the league. This can't be undone!
- Click Delete Team.
You can also transfer a team to another manager by following these steps:
- Click the Commissioner tab.
- Under "Manage Other Team", click Transfer Teams.
- Next to the team you want to transfer, enter the email address of the new manager.
- Click Send.

Setting 7 playoff teams for free and not behind a pay wall also letting commissioners to set positions limits for season long play not just
The 7 playoff teams settings shouldn't be behind a pay wall when other apps have it for free. Also let commissioners set roster position limits to help with members in the league from harboring all the WR or all the RB or all the QB to make it where every team in the league has a fair shot at winning
